Phil - The inverta-flow muffler can be fixed with Epoxy resin & cloth, just like the hull. Same repair procedure - grind out the crack into a v shape & add several layers that increase in perimeter size.

Several guys have changed from the inverta-flow to to straight pipes. TRBenj was one of them:

I'm thinking about getting rid of the inverta-flo on my '95 and go with a 2 into 1 set up.(mainly to get it out of the way for maintenance and cleaning under the box)
But before I can I need to find a decent in-line muffler for it. Anyone know of a small but effective in-line???

Is there a picture of someone taking out the inverta flow muffler and still keeping the single exhaust out the rear ?

Yes, it's with a Y-pipe. Phil Thompson from Solon IA did the process a few years back on his TSC1. I believe he said it didn't make too much of a difference in exhaust noise. I'll have to search and see if I can find the posts as I'd like to get rid of our Hull Hugger on the 96 since it makes getting to the shaft packing difficult.

I found the Y pipe at wards

Is there anywhere cheaper ?   That seems a bit steep for a little piece of pipe.

I found this on Ebay today. Looks like something that you may be able to modify pretty easily

Jones was on the right path, Centek does make a Y with 3" or 3.5" inlets and a 4" outlet. This is just a "standard y", not a "surge fitting". Surge fittings are all the same size inlet and outlet diameters.
